Ngobeni added that despite the interest, Billiat was not keen to leave Amakhosi.
“Yes, Raja Casablanca phoned me but Khama is still contracted to Chiefs. They have to get hold [of] Chiefs, if they are serious about signing Khama. It is up to the two teams (if they agree or not). I will just wait,” Ngobeni told Independent Media.
“He is happy there. He did well in his first season with Chiefs. Whatever come we will see. There’s no pressure for Khama to go. They love him at Chiefs. The management loves him, fans loves him and his teammates also love him. What difference will it make if he leaves? Chiefs is bigger than Casablanca. They phoned and approached me but I told them to go and talk to his employers.
“He wants to win something with Chiefs. Al Ahly and Zamalek have also enquired. He did well at the Afcon. Obviously, there will be enquiries but they have to phone Chiefs. No one [has] come to me with an offer, it all been inquiries. I’m just waiting. It is not the deal that I need to check. The player is still happy at Chiefs,” Ngobeni concluded.
